CRUDE-OIL BURNER.

Specification of Letters Patent. Pgtqgntgd Sgpfig, 16 1913,

Application filed November 21, 1912. Serial No. 732,702.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that we, URIAH B. PATRICK and Josnrrr S. PATRICK, citizensof the United States, residing at Oklahoma city, in the county ofOklahoma, State of Oklahoma, have invented certain new and usefulImprovements in Crude-Oil Burners; and we do hereby declare thefollowing to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention,such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to'make and use the same.

This invention is directed to improvements in crude oil burners, and hasfor its object to so construct a device of this character so that thesame may be conveniently ap lied to a stove.

further object of the invention is to so construct a device of thischaracter that the oil will be vaporized in such a manner that a flamewhich is steady is produced.

With these and other objects in View, this invention resides in thenovel features of construction, formation, combinations and arrangementsof parts to be hereinafter more fully described, claimed and illustratedin the accompanying drawing, in which Figure 1 is a topplan viewembodying our invention. Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the same. Fig. 3is a front view. Fig. 4 is a sectional view on line 4l4: of Fig. 1. Fig.5 is a sectional view on line 55 of Fig. 1. Fig. 6 is a similar view online 66 of Fig. 1.

The burner comprises a pair of air conducting tubes 1, the same beingprovided with longitudinal slots 2, and through which the air passes.The top walls of the tubes 1 are provided with semi-circular casings 3,the same being provided with a plurality of perforations 4, so formed asto lie adjacent the slots 2. The innerends of the casings 3 are closedby heads 5, while the outer ends of the casings are connected by asimilar casing 6 which is mounted upon the air tube 7, said tube alsobeing provided with a slot 8, while the casing 6 is provided adjacentthe slot 8 with perforations 9.

A gas receiving tube 10 has its outer end in communication with thecasing 6, said tube being of less length than the air tubes 1 andcasings 3, and is semi-circular in cross section. The tube 10 isprovided upon its sides with perforations 11.

The outer ends of the air tubes 1 are connected to the outer ends oftubes 12, the inner ends of WhlCh are connected to a sleeve 13, saidinner ends opening into said sleeve so that air may enter through thesleeve,

and from thence through the tubes 12 to the tubes 1 and 7 A feed pipe ltleads from a suitable supply tank, (not shown) and passes through thesleeve 13 and terminates in a coil 15, the coils of which are disposedhorizontally and above the gas receiving tube 10, the innermost coilterminating in a discharge nozzle 16 which is in direct alinement withthe open end of the tube 10, but spaced a short distance therefrom, sothat when the gas is generated in the coils, the same will be mixed withthe air before entering the open end of said tube.

To start the burner oil is fed to the coil 15 through the pipe 14 untila small quantity passes through the nozzle 16 which when ignited willheat the coil 15 sufiiciently to generate gas which enters the receivingtube 10 and passes to the casings 3 and is ignited as it passes throughthe perforations l, the necessary air being mixed at this point as itpasses through the slots 2. It will be of course understood that flameis obtained upon opposite sides of the tube 10, as well as at the outerside of the casing 6, the required amount of air being obtained throughthe slot 8.

What is claimed is 1. An oil burner comprising air tubes, one air tubein communication with the outer ends of the remaining air tubes,semi-circular casings mounted upon the air tubes, said casings havingperforations formed therein, a gas receiving tube connected to said casings, a feed pipe terminating in a coil which when heated generates gas,said gas being directed into the receiving tube and from thence to thecasings to be ignited when passing through the perforations in theeasings, and means for admitting air into the air tubes.

2. An oil burner of the class described comprising three air tubeshaving slots formed therein, one of said tubes connecting the outer endsof the other two tubes, semi-circular casings mounted upon the tubes,said casings having gas outlets formed therein and adjacent the slots ofthe air tubes, a gas receiving tube having communication centrally ofthe casings, extensions connected tothe inner ends of the said other twoair tubes, a sleeve in communication generated thus will be ejectedthrough theVlO with the inner ends of the extensions to nozzle into thegas receiving tube.
